Critic Ratings
James Suckling Review - Rated 96:
Aromas of currants and plums are layered with violets, chocolate orange, wet stone and sweet spice. The full-bodied palate is velvety and balanced, supported by fine tannins and a rich core of berries. Creamy texture and spicy chocolate accents carry through a generous, energetic finish.
Robert Parker Wine Advocate Review - Rated 92?:
The latest bottle review finds red and black currants and plums marked by woodsmoke and dried herbs after 30 months in new French oak. The full-bodied palate is easygoing, with soft tannins, rounded acidity and concentrated tobacco-laced fruit. Its more rustic evolution reflects the challenges of the vintage and favors drinking over the next few years.
